I'll clock 'em for ya this weekend.

Major Disaster: "I'm a f$*#!ing super hero!"

This is what I mean. And he always has/had that skewed viewpoint at the meetings. 'When I was a super villain, we hated it when the heroes would ...' kind of thing. Very cool.

Also among the books discussed here that I pulled and reread was the WTWS issue of Young Justice. having bought it well before I started catching Buffy reruns, I missed out on a lot.

Unnamed character who shall be known as AH2: 'I develop a romantic fixation on Cissie's character? Where did that come from?!'

Character who's name I can't remember who shall be known as SMG2: 'Chill, Ok. Joe wrote this one, and Joe knows what he's doing. Trust Joe.'

Heh.

Oh! That arc of JLA also had wonderful Batman. Nightwing hugs him!

Actually, that's when I was first introduced to a bunch of characters I now really like-- Kyle, Ollie, Zatanna, Ray Palmer, and a few others. I'm still a little unclear on the actual plot, though.

Again, that's the thing with Kelly. His plots tend not to be very straightforward, occasionally leaning over into the nonsensical, but his characters and dialogue are strong, and when he actually connects on a plot, he hits pretty hard. The Nightwing Bats hug also had some accompanying talk of 'rules' that should play well with certain posters who have rather definite opinions on Batships.

I just have to say how much I love the new BoP. That is all.

Michele, I second that statement.

I'm not sure where to begin with the love. Although I could start at the end and restate my Helena~n~Josh4EVAH!1! I also really loved the cover art on this a lot, and agree with the guy at my comic shop that Land interiors would make our day.

OMG, Helena&Josh4EVAH! Also, Dick & Babs, but we KNEW that. And the Arsenal crack had me laughing out loud. Huntress is a good addition to the team.

Simone is so good. I love her Jim Gordon, who is such a dad, and there's once again the nice dance around Jim "not knowing" what Babs does. And the sushi.

And Babs, who is learning what it takes to be a leader.

I loved all of that, plus the sparring with Diana, which just made me think of Amych, and Helena's expression when she tells the class she's going to be their teacher. And I really loved the sushi. She writes a wonderful Jim. And yeah, the Arsenal crack was most certainly laugh-out-loud funny.

We didn't pick up any superhero comics today. Our shop was out of IC #1, but have promised to set one aside for me when they get the re-shipment in. Pete asked me if I wanted to pick up Outsiders or Nightwing, but I'm still waffling on becoming hooked on them. I probably WILL pick up the Outsiders tpb, but I dunno if I wanna get into the individual issues.

Last issue of Bone = hmmm. I think I liked Bone better when it was just really funny, before it became a Big Epic. But I was tickled by the Rat Creatures finally getting quiche.

New Promethea! Iiiiiiiieee! OMG OMG, want the next issue now.

Aaaaaand, because I am a target market, I bought a cuddly toy zombie bunny at the comic store. Clovis is very pleased with this, and has named it Moredread.

Jilli, when in doubt, read mine until the hooks are in firmly.

Err, I mean, until you make up your mind.

I had more thoughts on BoP #68, but it was a little long for heavy whitefonting, so I'm just going to link.
